Im 4 months pregnant and me and my boyfriend fight alot. Not every day but we do get into arguements where I cant control myself and I go crazy on him. Doesnt really get that bad, but I do get really mad and start screaming. Can that hurt in any way my baby's health?????

A woman who is anxious or stressed while pregnant is at greater risk of bearing a child who will develop an anxiety disorder or behavior problems. The period between 12 and 22 weeks of pregnancy were found to be particularly crucial for increasing risk. A mothers anxiety during that period was associated with a heightened risk of a child developing hyperactivity symptoms, "acting out" behavior problems, and their own anxiety problems. So calm down take a deep breath and WALK AWAY!!!!! Good Luck!

I have four kids and let me say I was very depressed during my first three pregnancies. Due to the first ones father leaving me when I first found out I was pregnant Then I was abuse with the second one mental and verbally. Then went through a divorce with the third child. Needless to say, I was under A LOT of stress and my kids were born healthy. 1st one was 9lbs 6 oz, 2nd was 10lbs, 6.5 oz and born two weeks early due to she was so big and the 3rd was two weeks early only due to the doc was scared I would have another 10lb baby and she weighed 8lbs 5oz So the answer is I don't think so, but I would take it easy and not be so upset all the time it isn't good for the baby. If your upset every now and then it is okay.

i know exactly what you mean and I have been trhough it with both of my pregnancies. i got pregnant when i was 19. it was an abusive relationship to begin with. We would fight and scream, he would throw things and hit me. I would scream and feel myself losing control. I found him with other women, he stole from me, broke into my house when i was in the hospital in false labour only to steal my tv and seel it for money to drink. he pulled stuff like that constantly. Everyday I was stressed out, i would scream and cry till i vomited and then continue. this lasted throughout my pregnacy, and continued IN FRONT of my baby, she actually got in the middle of it one time and was injured at 3 months, being hospitalized. When i was pregnant i was getting sharp pains in my side and i kept going to the doc, they kept saying the baby was just t on a nerve not to worry. i ended up in the emerg. room and they did an ultrasound and looked very carefully and they found my placenta had a small tear caused by STRESS. the immediatly broke my water to induce labour. my daughter was born only 6 pounds and 17 inches long. she didnt eat right for the first few wweks and she cried a lot. This happend exactly the same through my second pregnancy. You dont deserve this, and your baby doesnt deserve this. It may seem like the end of the world if you even CONSIDER leaving him, i know the feeling, its lke a sick knot in your stomach/chest. it is possible though i put up with abuse for 7 years and finally left him. when you're ready to do it, you will. dont ever think youll never find anyone better. i thought i would be alone for ever and now, im living with ths guy who is sweet, caring, funny, responsible, loves my kids like crazy and ready to have a baby with me. talk to someone about this , if you want to email me you can i dont know, you have to do something, i wa lucky in my pregnancies that more didnt go wrong, you may not be

Yes it can and you can have a miscarriage due to stress.. and you can also develop problems as well.. I would try to find ways to calm down.. and when the baby is born.. see about having some counseling, b/c fighting after the baby is born can cause problems as well. Good luck.. hope all goes well.

It is not healthy for the baby.They pick up on your emotions and can put the baby in distress and cause you to have a miscarriage.If this continues your baby will be a very sensitive and emotional child .If you guys start to argue you need to walk out the room or go for a drive.It's not worth it remember your status.

Yes, it can affect the baby's growth and development. It would be better for you to stay calm and not fight with your boyfriend. Remind yourself that you are responsible for a child's life now.

yes stress is really bad for a baby...I kinda went thru the same stuff..just leave the situation until you are cooled off to talk things out....go for a ride or a walk or talk to someone you trust...

It puts stress on the baby. It can cause a misscarriage. Or some other stress related issues.

Your stress can harm the fetus....practice now being calm, so the baby doesn't have to be born into a yelling, fighting homelife!!!
